According to the latest Rich States, Poor States report from the American Legislative Exchange Council, Arizona ranks second in the nation for economic growth over the past 10 years. During that time, we’ve ranked in the top-5 for GDP growth, domestic migration, and employment growth, clear indicators of our strength as a destination for both business and talent.
Arizona has also ranked No. 1 on the Common Sense Institute’s Economic Momentum Index every year since 2019. That growth has translated into real gains for Arizonans: more jobs, rising incomes, and the largest percentage-point decline in poverty in the country.
